FREEDOM Weary of walls, I have fled to the open moorland, Tired of books, I have sought the sky and sea, Rough, brown moor, blue ocean, measureless heavens-- These I have longed for, these will companion me. Here I can lean, and the arms of the wind uphold me. Here I can shout, and the romping waves reply; Free as the billows that break on battered Iedges- Only the .gulls, the wind on the moor, and I. y K EUNICE FORDE, 32. Page thirty'one SCHOLASTICAN1931

President HARRIET SPAETGENS HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Vice'President JANE NIETSCHMANN HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Secretary MARGARET SIMON HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Treasurer For three years, we juniors have been members of the ex alted high school. It seems a long time, especially if you tear these years into hours, hours of Latin, history, French, and English. Why, do you realize that we,ve helped Caesar build his bridge, struggled over amateur poetry, hetudions frangaish; not to mention thangling'h through geometry, cram! ming algebra, botany, and numerous other subjects? However, wehve done other things besides working In! deed, yes. Who doesnat remember the 33hot dog 1',oasts tr1ps to the Aquarlum after school part1es? And then there were the games between the classes, in basket ball, hockey, and all the popular sports. Of course we became very much more dignified and serious when we entertained the seniors at the end of the year. This was the big event in the junior yeargpresiding at a memore able party for our sisters who were about to leave. IMore than any other we have Sister Alcuin to thank for the happy hours we spent in the last year She has lent a help 1mg hand to every plan and has joined 111 every good time. So our jumor class could be summed up thus: we ve worked, weave played, weave entertained-in short weave en' joyed and made the most of every moment of our existence. MARY JANE CULLEN, v32.

ViceIPTesident HELEN STRINGER Secretary VIRGINIA RAPP Treasurer ihHello, Jane, glad to see you again. Oh, Virginia is let! ting her hair grow! I wonder how it will look. Say, Helen, where did you get that marvelous coat of tan? Been doing a lot of swimming this summer.7H No, this wasnt a wild scramble at the Grand Central Star tion but a scene at our own St. Scholastica when on Septeme ber 10 the iifreshiesii 0f the year before returned as SOphO' mores, bounding with joy at the sight of the 01d familiar faces. That word Sophomores made us realize we had big things to accomplish in the year that stretched before us. Itis been a full year. Our debut into the social world took place at a welcoming tea'dance given for the freshmen. We did our best to make them feel at home in their new role of high school students. At Christmas we had an adventure to some poor families down on Chicagois lower west side. In the held of athletics the sophomores captured the proud title of runnerrup in both hockey and basketball tournaments, and itis well known that in aquatic sports we iisophsi have always scored heavily. And now the year, with its work and fun, its joys and successes has come to an end. A great share of the happiness we have experienced has been due to Sister Aloysia who has stood by us in all our undertakings and helped to make them what they were. To her, we, the graduates of 17:3 extend our heartiest thanks. BETTY NEIL, 33. SCHOLASTICAN 1931
